Holy Trinity High School’s Catholic Life is rooted in the Eucharist, Gospel values and a commitment to service to each other and our community.
A Holy Trinity education is both spiritual and intellectual. Our rigorous college preparatory curriculum invites students into a relationship with Jesus Christ, helping them to understand the role that faith plays in their daily lives and in the larger society.
Campus Ministry invites students to participate in celebrations of the Eucharist and other sacraments; promotes spiritual engagement and worship; encourages reflection and prayer; offers social justice and leadership opportunities; and fosters a supportive and inclusive community at Holy Trinity High School.
Retreats Students in every grade participate in a grade-level retreat. Freshman, sophomore and junior retreats are one-day that occur during a day of classes. Each retreat focuses on a theme and a scripture passage relevant for each grade level. L.I.G.H.T.s Juniors and Seniors have the opportunity to apply for a leadership and retreat team called the L.I.G.H.T.S. an acronym for Living In God Holy Together. The name also invokes the call and responsibility to be the Light of Christ to all they meet. Aside from being leaders and role models of faith in our school community, L.I.G.H.T.S also serve as the underclassmen retreat facilitators.
